Well guys it looks poor/very poor going forward for any cold with longevity. Apart from a short colder snap late this week/weekend the mean average going forward is above normal right up to mid January. There is scatter though so cannot completely discount a different outcome but not likely. I guess we can hope for a 2018 scenario with a cold snowy February & March which would suit me fine. I'll take snow whenever it arrives. Rain returns by the looks of the precipitation chart as well. We need a long dry spell as the ground is still sodden. Anyway I wish you all a happy new year. All the best. Alan.
Yes, 2018's 'Beast from the east ' can put another appearance in for me too. Happy new year.

Wet, drizzly wet, it's foggy on the hills as l cannot see any cars headlights or tail lights as they wind up and down Old Buxton road.

App temp reading 9°, l don't know if it reached double figures earlier as I've been in work . Very pleasant walk home in the bright sunshine, however it did feel quite chilly. I agree the weather for a while has been quite non descript, and we are missing a good flurry of snow.

Morning all. Dry at the moment, a bit cloudy but I can see blue sky, feeling mild, app temp reading 7°. Apparently tomorrow we will be in double figures. Had a drinks, cheese and quiz night last night, one of the questions was asking which month in 2018 was Britain covered in a blanket of snow as a result of 'the beast from the east'?. You are now probably mentally mumbling the answer to yourself. Been a pleasant Christmas, and I've no plans yet for New Years eve. Anybody making any unusual resolutions this year?

Mild, grey Christmas morning, feeling warmer than the 7° on my temp app. Wishing you all a great Christmas, and those of you who have to go into work enjoy your festivities later.

I'm going to eat a whole box of Black Magic, feel sick, give it half an hour, then start on the Matchmakers.

Hailstorm in Macclesfield just now. Bits of sleet and snow and all sorts. Very odd. Waiting for the flash of lightning!
Thought we may have had a bit of lightning too, however my app temp hasn't dropped all day, it's still at 4°, but then again I don't know how accurate it is. It's easing off now, I'm off out xmas present delivering.

Just had a snow shower here in Macc, and looking to my east, in the Buxton direction the hills are white over. Must have a look at the Cat and Fiddle web cam. Sunny at the moment.

Just experiencing the same here in Macc. Wind howling around the house, rain hitting the windows making quite a noise, spooked me for a moment.

Took a picture of a cumulonimbus forming in the distance about an hour ago. You can make it the pileus cloud on top of it too.
Been a few strikes between north majorca and menorca, did you see any distant action?

Thought I would pop in with a wee post as it is sad to see the tumbleweed blowing through here...even @Summer Sun has given up posting the Convective Weather daily outlook!
Had some torrential downpours and nice cloudscapes over the past week - also Asperitas clouds last month. (Anyone seen them before?)
Now that Summer/thunderstorm season has gone I thought I would look back at my favourite pictures I had taken of convection/thunderstorms from June/July/August - great season up here.
And lastly I wanted to take some pictures after the thunderstorm/convection had cleared - which made for some dramatic scenes/sunsets.
It really was a glorious Summer for warmth, convection/thunderstorms and skies - one I will never forget!
Hopefully next Summer delivers the same (up here) and more thunderstorms for all of us!
All the best!
David
Superb photos and what a wonderful place to live.

That's what comes from too much lamppost-watching!
I love lamppost watching. Waiting and waiting for the first snowflake to drift into the illuminated glow when there's a threat of a snow shower.

Not one drop of rain to my knowledge here in Macc. I did observe huge cumulus moving east most of the morning. Granada Reports mentioned that the pennines had thunder and lightning. It's been quite a pleasant day here today.

Thunder and lightning earlier today in the Pennines, its just been mentioned on Granada Reports. I'm not surprised as mid morning there was huge cumulus continually travelling eastwards from my location, some good insolation too as the ground quickly dried up this morning and I could hear mine and the neighbours upvc frames expanding. Some interesting convective skies earlier looking towards Manchester.

Made a report to Torro. Adjusted the contrast and brightness to see what was going on. It looked as though it was towards north Cheshire about 1.55pm on the 4th October 2019
I'm probably being a bit impatient, but is there any feed back from Torro yet?

Great lightning activity on Hvar you tube live cam at the moment, with sound.

Temp this morning at 5:45 was 3°. The sky was clear and Orions Belt was bright and clearly visible. To think some of us was still wearing shorts a little over a week ago, this morning I was in need of my gloves. At the moment the sky is beautifully clear and my tablet app is at 8°. No doubt this will fall lower before dawn. Lovely nippy autumnal night.

Tablet app temp at 5:45 this morning 3°. Sky clear, Orions Belt beautifully visible. Breath condensing in the chilly air.

Just got home from dropping daughter off at Manchester Airport. Anyone remember when it was called Ringway Airport? Torrential/heavy rain all the way there and no traffic hold ups on the A555 link road at Wilmslow, unlike the end of July when it flooded at Stockport. Tablet app temp is 13° and rainfall is steady at the moment.

Yes, still warm enough for shorts, tablet temp app peaked at 16° yesterday, however it did feel warmer than that. This morning its reading 14°, with steady rainfall at the moment. So it's a hood up, head down walk to work in a few mins.

Current temp reading 5° at the moment, a really pretty sunrise earlier, the clouds were illuminated in a pink glow with a pale blue background. Rain predicted for later. I wonder what temps parts of our region will reach today.
